Eleven Months

James went to the eye doctor today. The appointment was originally scheduled because he was still crossing his eyes sometimes when he last saw the eye doctor, and they wanted to follow up. We couldn't remember the last time we noticed him crossing his eyes, so we figured he'd grown out of it like they expected. We were tempted to cancel the appointment (and save our $60 copay!), but we decided to be on the safe side and go. So, everything looked great and he doesn't need to go back for another 18 months (same time as Matthew). Yay!

Mattie was playing a new game today. He had one of his teething toys, and he would bat it away on the hard wood floor, then crawl over to get it, then bat it away again, then crawl over to it. I'm pretty sure he was doing it on purpose (that is, he wasn't just having a hard time picking it up). He's definitely enjoying getting around! He also crawled across the room to try to get a toy from James, but Mommy wouldn't let him. :)
